First Ashley Valley Canal and Early Irrigation Ditches
A historical overview tracks Ashley Valley irrigation beginnings from 178s exploration to 1884 when the Ashley Central Irrigation Company formed with 67 stockholders and a six mile canal. It notes Parker and Bartons ditches, early attempts to irrigate lands away from creeks, and later reservoir schemes by Whiterocks and Ashley Valley to support storage and farming growth.
